I'm an author of this crazy stuff, too... I'll roll for perception and you can tell me if I've found the secret room. 16. That's an 18, after I add 3 from my "Murder Your Darlings" ability and take 1 way because of my "You Have a Tendency to Take a Thing Too Far" racial...
LOL I think you're going to fit in here just fine. Got you added to the Authors group! There's another secret forum. You need to buy a torch to access it. It's where all the "cool kids" hang out! lol
Solo quests can occasionally be fun lol, but I hear ya... As I've mentioned elsewhere, this place is brand new, so I'm really looking to the community members for help on how it should grow/evolve.
Definitely LITRPG fans are the best. The authors are good to as long as they don't leave me hanging on a cliff.
Do you have anything up on RRL (Royal Road Legends) or elsewhere? Part of me thinks publication should be a barrier of entry? On the other hand, the Author Group forum could help a newbie author in various ways. Maybe we need a half-way house - Aspiring Writer Guild? I kinda like that idea. Either in the LitRPG Books category or off on its own in a secret forum ala Deep Dark Cave (DDC)...
Speaking of the hidden forums - I like that idea because new members won't be overwhelmed with too many options when they first arrive. As they settle in, they can join the guilds that interest them the most and personalize their LitRPG Forum experience.
